hello all, im new here. im looking to save more gas with my 99 gt. i was wondering if there is another differential i could use to lower my cruising rpm.
if i want more power ill leave it in 4th gear. 3000 revs at 60 mph or so seems a little high, granted its good for power. anyone have any ideas? |

easiset and most reversable option is as said before is go to a larger tire size. 205/60/15 would be cheaper and give you a higher speed per rpm, but checkl your actual highway speed with a gps so make corrections
